Dragasakis said that for the government tackling corruption is a top political goal for the recovery of public interest.
"For us, the battle against corruption is battle for democracy, the collective interest and the new social ethos of post-memorandum Greece," Dragasakis said.
"Corruption is a demonstration of problems benefited from a state of deregulation and extreme individualism as a result of neoliberalism," he said and noted that "the fight against corruption is a fight for the recovery of public interest that is at the heart of government policy," a battle for the current government is a constant battle with zero tolerance towards corruption phenomena.
